Seeing this new film by Jean-Luc Godard was for me the highlight of this year's Helsinki Film Festival, since his movies have not been commercially released in this part of the world since, I quess, the 80's. And Our Music does not disappoint - it is Godard at his best in style, emotion and intellect. The beginning ("Hell") shows that Godard, like Tarkovsky, is a genius of using archive material and montage.
"Killing a man in defense of an idea is not defending an idea, it is killing a man."

There's gotta be a better way to do this. Notre musique finds Godard dropping his hectoring stance in favor of a dense, rambling discourse that, I confess, gave me multiple borgasms. As an essay on paper, it might have made an interesting read (or it might not have --Godard has a tendency to stop a line of thought at an aphorism rather than tease it out through logic). As cinema, it's stultifying.
